The Spirit is not an impersonal “it” or simply an influence. He is a person. He is sometimes forgotten in the discussion of the God the Father and God the Son, and yet plays a role within the Trinity and salvation that is fundamental to the Christian life. The Holy Spirit is a person who can be grieved ([[Ephesians 4:30]]) and teach ([[John 14:26]]) among many other things.
===The importance of the Holy Spirit===
It is essencial for christians to recognize the importance of the Holy Spirit in the divine plan. Without his presence in this world, there would not be creation, universe, nor even the human breed ([[Genesis 1:2]], [[Job 26:13]], [[Job 33:4]], [[Psalm 104:30]]). Without the Holy Spirit, the bible would not come into existence ([[2 Peter 1:21]]), neither the New Testament ([[John 14:26]], [[1 Corinthians 2:10]]), and christians would have no power to proclaim the gospel ([[Acts 1:8]]). Without the Holy Spirit, there would not be faith, new birth, holiness, and for sure no christian would exist in this world.
